Blogger strikes again!

My apologies to those of you looking for yesterday's post, but Blogger has a persistent issue which means that if I open a post to edit it on my iPad, the content gets automatically deleted.  This has happened a few times now and reporting it has not even produced the courtesy of a reply.

Not happy!

Tim,

I thought that this was just a problem that I was having!

I got nowhere with Blogger; the only feedback I got was that the problem was a result of the iPad's operating system.

The only way I have found to avoid the problem is to write my blog using my word processer program, save it as a document, and then copy and paste it into Blogger. That way, if Blogger deletes the text, I still have a copy.

I hope that this is of some assistance.

All the best,

Bob

It seems as if you have upset the blog gods at some point Tim.

Doom on you.

President Fred probably just censored yesterdays post on the scrap metal arrivals.

Not that it ever happened...

Thanks - that was the conclusion I had reached.

Ah yes, it could all be down to the P'htangi Internal Secret Security Office (PISOFF).

That was only one of the words I used.

Can I join the chorus of not being impressed with the new blogger interface?

The iPad mostly gets used for work stuff. Usually everything works really well.....

The new interface seems to be the issue. I have gone back to the old one - but they're about to pull the plug on it.
